About This Event
In partnership with JW Collective
IHALC returns to Manchester with a content special
One of the biggest challenges currently facing In-House creative teams is producing ever-increasing volumes of content in order to meet the demands of modern marketing. When there is no opportunity to increase team size, what are the strategies, tools and partners that teams are turning to?
On 24 February, IHALC will be returning to Manchester to explore these topics with the support of our partners for the day, JW Collective. We’ll be at the Whitworth Locke hotel with:
Leo Eastland, Studio Director at JD Sports Fashion: in conversation with IHALC’s Patrick Burgoyne, Leo will be sharing JD Sports’ approach to AI to amplify and scale his team’s work, aligning AI with JD’s brand values and what the future opportunities for AI are in the business
We’ll also be presenting case studies with JWC partners, Revolution Productions, Octopus Inc and Talent Republic on how they work with in-house teams.
